I've seen several sites mention this, it's real.
Do not make the MISTAKE of thinking you need to put your side forward. The Guardian is transphobic as fuck, and will twist your words. DO NOT ENGAGE.
By the way, this is in the aftermath of the Cass Report, and the goal will be to make Trans DIY something that needs to be regulated or stamped out. DO NOT ENGAGE.
here's a big happy 18 to neil banging out the tunes - he can vote now
happy april 13th !!
my only condolence is that i can see it with the naked eye bc of the clouds. would have been nice to see totality tho.
guys why the fuck aren't we talking about what's happening in the uk right now
nobody outside the uk is talking about this. why is nobody talking about it
prev!!!!!!
again, i know it's depressing and i'm sorry for putting negative stuff on everyone's dash but it's so fucking frustrating that nobody is talking about this because if nobody listens to us then nothing will happen and nothing will change, please please please start speaking up
it got worse 😁

spread the word, scream, shout, TALK. we will scream ourselves hoarse before we roll over and let this happen.
wait shit i actually have an important addition to this post
imagine being that fucking rich and that fucking careless.
So what you're saying is that we need to find a way to kill (literally) this couple before the climate gets worse?
the solution for taking care of "unsightly" homeless people is to house us. that is the only solution. if you can't stand the look of someone living on the sidewalk, you shouldn't stand for them being put into that situation to begin with. housing us is the only answer.
it's tuesday, tuck him in.
there were christmas festivities today at the homeless shelter. they were handing out stockings and when i went to get one they asked me if i'm male or female!! but there was a lot going on and i legitimately had no idea what they were saying so i asked what and they repeated and i said what and they said female 😔 but it's cool that they couldn't identify me for at least a moment. idk how tho bc i'm wearing leggings and i had my feminine bag (my friend gave me for job interviews bc my huge dirty backpack would make me look too homeless i'm sure) but i had my hood up so that's probably what it was. IT'S GOOD ANYWAY. AND THAT'S NOT ALL!! so for the christmas dinner they had volunteers serving us the food. so i was sitting with my partner and a man comes to our table and asks "gentlemen, would you like some cookies?" GENTLEMEN. PLURAL. as in ME. as in I'M gentleman. my partner would have never heard the end of it either if he didn't go take his stocking to his bed and lay down.
thinking about this again. some people on here have sent me resources online that may help with my homelessness so i figured there's a shot. even though i've posted about it multiple times and no one has told me anything, but i haven't asked yet.
a lot of people here at the homeless shelter are here because of irresponsible decisions they've made. they seem to get the most help. the parents get $250 in (texas grocery store) gift cards for doing the same classes that i have to do but i don't get food for it. i'm hungry. i am an antinatalist because this world is not safe for my descendants. i made the choice to devote my womb to the orphans like me who have been fucked over by their parents and society. i made the conscious choice not to have kids because i could not guarantee that i would not become a victim of this society and i didn't want to bring an innocent human being down with me. sure i have made mistakes in my life but i have not made any mistakes that force anyone else to suffer along with me. i have not made any catastrophic enough mistakes to deserve this. i am here because i am a victim of multiple violent crimes including two unrelated attempted murders, one of which was at the hands of my own mother. where is the help for victims? does anyone have any resources for people who are sympathetic to victims of violent crime? does anyone know of anyone or anywhere i could ask that could point me in the right direction? people who choose to be in a homeless shelter get so much help but people who are homeless as a direct result of being a victim of violent crime get thrown away and forgotten like trash. where is the help for victims? do i just deserve to suffer because people attacked me and tried to kill me? society just thinks that i deserved to be murdered? i wish she would have just done it believe me. i wish my mother had succeeded but it's not my fault she didn't kill me. it's very obvious to me this society would have preferred if she had succeeded but it's not my fault she didn't.
I don’t have children so take this with a grain of salt but I hate when you can tell people like the concept of their children more than their well-being. Parents like the concept of an all-beige nursery that’s photogenic more than they care about the development of their kid’s brain. They like the concept of a cutely dressed kid in designer clothes more than they care about their comfort and personal desires. They like the concept of a child who never eats poorly more than they care about the happiness that can come from a child eating some candy now and then. People need to stop treating their kids like little dolls
Uh, I have kids, and so I've spent a lot of time around kids and around other parents, and you are very much on to something.
Whether they have kids because they felt like they needed to or because they wanted an heir or whatever, they don't actually want to hang out with developing humans. They want the idea of kids. They want the Christmas card and the pictures on the desk and the Instagram picture.
They don't want the baby screaming for 5 hours straight because it's too cold out to walk to the store and get more baby ibuprofen for the ear infection on Friday night and your partner has the car. They don't get that the baby is crying because she's literally never hurt worse than this in her tiny life, and they don't get that their toddler has never been sadder than when her favorite toy broke, and that she really didn't know she would break it if she did the thing she just did. That the 4-year-old is crying because the world is too big and too overwhelming and she has no control over where she goes or what she does most of the time, and that the 14-year-old isn't telling them anything about her life because they told her ten years ago to shut up or they'd give her something worth crying about, so she knows they don't value her real feelings, only the ones she's supposed to have.
And they don't want to get any of it. And it fucking sucks that people who don't actually WANT kids feel like they have to have them, or have them to have something smaller than themselves to bully, or have kids as a status symbol. It all just blows, and mostly because:
Kids are people, and most people are actually pretty fucking rad, if given the opportunity to be.
There are a lot of good parents out there, and then there are the parents who had kids because they thought they had to, or wanted someone to boss around, or whatever. And like... even if you thought you wanted kids, you can quickly find out that it actually blows to be a parent in a nuclear family setup, and get really burned out on being a parent. Kids are much better raised by an extended family. That's how we're wired. And like... we broke it. We broke it, and it breaks parents and it hurts kids.
lots of people like this here at the homeless shelter. and they get so much help, they are enabled to do this. actually people are encouraged to do this. my friend told me when she was my age she reached out for help from some organization and she was told that if she wanted help she could have a kid or go to school. literally people are encouraged to have kids so that they can get social services.
i am tormented by this every single day of my life because i was forced to exist against my will because my parents liked the idea of a kid and i experienced so much abuse and neglect similar to what is described in this post. and this phenomenon is not only legal but encouraged. but there's only help for the parents who chose to force their kids to exist because they like the idea of kids, there is no help for the kids. the kids who are victims of this phenomenon grow up and have no one to help them, they are thrown to the wolves as soon as they graduate highschool, if they manage to, forced to depend on the kindness of strangers bc they get no help from family. put in a vulnerable situation, these kids are taken advantage of. this phenomenon is not good for anyone. the parents lives are ruined, the kids lives are ruined. my life was ruined bc i was forced to exist against my will by evil people who threw me to the wolves at. 13 years old. i was forced to depend on the kindness of strangers bc my family does not care if i live or die. now i am homeless because i have been a victim of multiple violent crimes bc i was thrown to the wolves and made vulnerable, so i have had to flee from danger multiple times in adulthood and there is no help available to me.
and it is completely legal to do this. people do it every day. i will die of poverty because this was done to me and no one cares, my parents will never face responsibility for indirectly killing me, i am meant to accept all of the consequences of their decision to force me to exist against my will and i am meant to say thank you for the consequences of other people's actions. i am vulnerable and scared. i have already been made a victim so many times because my parents were allowed to force me to exist and were never made to take responsibility for that. this shit tortures me every day of my life.
rich people be losing theoretical money and making it our problem. like imagine anyone not wealthy being like "this is how much money I thought I would be making and since I'm not, I'm taking it from someone who needs it way more than me" and then we call it inflation or rising costs of living
i am not kicked out. and in fact i am being given housing opportunities that are so complicated my case manager and housing liaison do not even fully understand them. i am still terrified
i am going to be kicked out of the homeless shelter because i was fired from my job for reporting transphobic sexual harassment and racism. i got a housing voucher and then got fired the next day. i was told i would have 3 months until my appointment for the housing voucher to find a new job but the appointment came early and because i don't have a job the homeless shelter is going to kick me out. i don't know what i could possibly do now. i don't know what i can do. they told me there's nothing i can do. they also said they don't know when i'll be kicked out or how long i will have to leave. i am so scared. all of this is happening to me because i am a victim of violent crime. i was made homeless by violent crime. i was made disabled by violent crime. i cannot get disability because of the oppressive systems in place. there is nothing i can do i am fucked and i am so scared. my life is over i need to die. if anyone wants to donate money so maybe i could get a hotel room or something i don't know, i can't rent a place without an income. i'm fucked but if you feel inclined to do something to help i have paypal $iturmom and cashapp $ityourmom
but what i need is justice for the oppression and violent crimes i have been a victim of. i still don't have a plan for that but i have been working on writing my experience to appeal to the masses for help with like gofundme and reddit or something. i've been working on it but i don't have it yet.
today is the day of my appointment with my case manager and housing liaison. i believe i will be kicked out today. i got a job last night. per the rules of the homeless shelter, i got a job before the date of my voucher appointment, which is tomorrow. i have reason to believe that they voided my voucher prematurely and that it doesn't matter that i got a job and followed their rules. if my housing voucher is already voided they are going to kick me out even though i followed their rules. i don't know what i will do. my friend that i came here with who was initially telling me she would put me on her housing voucher said that i should look around on like craigslist etc to see if i can find a cheap room to rent or something. i'm scared that if i find somewhere to live i won't be eligible for a housing voucher. i wanted to get a housing voucher from here so i could get furniture and essentials if i'm ever allowed to have my own apartment. and of course bc the housing voucher only requires 30% of your income which is the realistic percentage of income a person can afford for rent. housing is expensive here. there's another homeless shelter here that is only available to people with children, but i was told last night that they opened a new shelter for singles so i'm going to look into that. but that's just word of mouth i can't be sure that it's really an option. i'm very scared and there is no certainty in my life.
